Description
Physics is our language to understand nature. It goes beyond formulas and allows us to shape the world. Hosted by Hanna Siemaszko, this podcast—brought to you by the Department of Physics and Materials Science (DPhyMS) at the University of Luxembourg—features conversations with some of the brightest minds in physics. You'll hear clear explanations about quantum mechanics, atomic clocks, laser cooling, AI, and data science from experts who know how to make these topics understandable. Originally launched as a lead-up to the Physics for Future conference, this three-episode miniseries makes complex ideas accessible for students and the curious public.

In the last episode before the Physics For Future conference, we had the privilege of speaking with Professor Peter Zoller, a renowned theoretical physicist from the University of Innsbruck. As we celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, Professor Zoller provided us with a comprehensive overview of the evolution and significance of quantum mechanics, as well as its practical applications in today's world. One of the key topics discussed was the rise of quantum compu...
For the second episode we had the privilege of speaking with Professor Tess Smidt, Assistant Professor at MIT who specializes in the fields of Euclidean symmetry and neural networks. From her early days when she majored in physics and minored in architecture, to her current work in computer science, Tess has always sought to understand how different fields can inform one another. A particularly fascinating aspect of our conversation was Tess's focus on symmetry. She argues that incorpor...
Our debut episode features Nobel Prize winner Prof. William D. Phillips, whose groundbreaking work using laser light to cool and trap atoms revolutionised physics. Host Hanna Siemaszko guides this inspiring conversation exploring not just the technical aspects of Phillips' research, but also his philosophical reflections on the evolution of physics and how to inspire next generations. Coming Up: Don't miss Prof. Phillips' interactive presentation "Time, Einstein and the coolest stuff in the u...
